What is unfiltered honey?

Unfiltered honey is a type of honey that has not undergone any sort of processing or filtering, leaving it in its raw and most natural form. It is made up of all the essences, enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional components of honeybees' nectar collection which makes it highly beneficial for human consumption.

The flavor profile for unfiltered honey varies from batch to batch depending on what kind of pollen the bees collected during their nectar run. As such, no two batches will be exactly alike - making this a variety we particularly adore! The consistency is often thick and creamy with small remaining traces of pollen bits floating around inside. What's more amazing is that since its unprocessed nature provides it with more nutrition than its filtered counterpart, raw unfiltered honey contains beneficial antioxidants as well as antifungal properties that help promote healthy digestion!

It can also be used topically due to its antibacterial qualities - making it an ideal skincare remedy for minor scrapes and cuts.  If you want to buy the best quality unfiltered honey then farmers' markets are the best place for you. Farmers' market honey is made by local beekeepers with love and dedication, far away from pollutants. If you’re looking for authentic, 100% natural, and unfiltered honey, the answer is simple: go to your local farmer’s market! You might be surprised by the variety of choices available at a good old-fashioned farmers' market.

Unfiltered honey has all of its nutritional benefits intact and no added preservatives or sugars. A lot of beekeepers at farmers' markets also have their own special blends that you can take home with you as well. So if you're looking for a sweeter, more natural way to enjoy all the health benefits of honey, then be sure to try some raw unfiltered honey.
